Smile4mee01: Hmnnn…well said. Sometimes I think polygamy was in place initially to allow every woman an opportunity to be a wife and a mother to children.
But women see it different, they think the other woman is taking from what she ought to have to herself.
someone needs to research if women in the Middle East predisposed to polygamy at happier than western women?
Better question is
Will women rather be 50, no husband and no child than be 50, married as a second wife with kids? Women do not need to be married to become mothers, they don't automatically become fertile for conception once they get married. The fact is that Nigerian women do not overwhelming outstrip the men (go google, statistics on Nigeria population have always attributed more men). The core issue is what I did present in a talk as the shrinking fishing pond. The "fishing pond" (which represents the men who meets the societal cut-off mark for being up to the task of starting and catering for the family) is rapidly shrinking thus the rise in numbers of women who are unmarried. Check the statistics in different websites, even Nigeria's National Bureau of Statistics still sticks that there are more men in Nigeria than women, so what is that pointing to? In developmental psychology, it is known that it is easier for males to fall off the "societal appropriateness" ladder than females. From early adulthood, society loses so many males to substance abuse, gangs, crime, police brutality, the prison system and even psychiatric facilities in comparison to females. In higher education, when faced with financial difficulties more male students are more likely to drop out of school than their female counterparts, who are facing same After graduation, societal expectations from the males are way higher than their female counterparts and the pace women are becoming more empowered far outstrips that of the males thus as women are climbing higher, less men are met on the way. This now takes us to Isaiah 4:1 In that day seven women will take hold of one man and say, “We will eat our own bread and provide our own clothes. Just let us be called by your name. Take away our disgrace!”" We will eat our own bread and provide our own clothes" foretold the economic empowerment of women, they only need to bear Mrs because of societal pressure (not be for oyibo woman sha as 3 of my female colleagues are married to females  ) and for 7 women to focus on one man is not a function of women outstripping the number of men alive but scarcity of men whey make sense for their eyes..... quantity dey, na quality eyes dey find. |

oldienavie: Your arguement is devoid of logic but awash with emotions.
Sometimes, it seems the rush to imbibe western culture prevents the black man from reasoning . This is something I really respect the Asians for, I had an Indian friend who is a top tech lead in one of the popular North American firms, he didnt see anything wrong in having his parents find a wife for him despite his exposure, look at Rishi Sunak and majority of Asians, despite the exposure, you can tell they are still culturally connected to their roots.
Now to bring it home, look at what is happening in our society, I have more than 10 ladies, well to do who are above 35years old on my neck for marriage. I really feel sorry for them, a lot of men are just tossing them around, go to churches, look around you, its heart breaking if you hear these ladies stories.
Women have now become the vulnerable and even those who manage to get married are having to endure abuse cos of the no husband thing that monogamy has caused.
When you put emotions aside and analyse the reality, you will agree that majority of women are suffering... Emotions?  Now if a survey as attached is carried out, what do you honestly think would be the outcome?

LocalStandard1: Miss you are a funny person.
Let me tell you how poor society survives. In the absence of economic viability if you tell the people to marry and have children you are literally pushing the Society to extinction. You see, numbers is the only chance of a poor society for survival and even it's road to growth.
Many Western countries today are encouraging their citizens to marry and have more children cos without which we are seeing a struggling and dying country and society, most "developed" society are beginning to have that issue.
Yes marriage is important, miss, you should know that you are a social science student. Drop your pride woman. Wetin concern pride and my position? Many Western Countries are not encouraging marriage but rather reproduction, having children outside the traditional concept of marriage is a non issue for them, as parents even though unmarried, there are expectations towards the children or Government gets involved by taking the child/children away from the birth family and get them to live under care. |

chloedogie: Start with his first line calling a child troublesome can lead the child into a mental breakdown or affect the child's esteem in life permanently. Does he know the implication of that? Some people who claim to know everything know nothing. Let him or her just go and teach for two hours and come back to share his experience in that UK class. Lol. I worked as a Teaching Assistant in UK classrooms and know the lines one should not cross no matter the provocation, real or perceived.  |

spiritedtete: Spot the most troublesome of the kids and praise him or her... how beautiful she is and you know he will be very brave... use that logic to extend to the trouble makers of the class. There are others ways.
Like the monkey thing written on the board the first thing to Do is to be silent.. mean eyes.. walk to the board and take snap shot.. and tell them how you will tell the whole world about There behaviour it will be in the news and the culprit will be disgraced... this is for kids in like grade 4 or 5. There are many ways to shut them up. Just build up a certain mechanism.
My kids are the only black in their school... sometimes I get lots of complaints from them. And I told them what to do everytime and it worked. They even started doing too much I had to caution them. I believe you know the highlighted is unacceptable to the school management, teachers are not expected to record or snap such in the classroom....now, the threat to broadcast such is very unethical. |

spiritedtete: The example shared is just like a normal happenings... there are worse things that happened. However learn more about reversed psychology. Read more on how to get white kids attention. Also note that their parents are the main instigator, they speak horrible things about blacks to their children in their homes. Nevertheless many white parents are as Dumb as zombies. They just want to feel superior when they see blacks. Like I said reversed psychology is their weakness. They are not so smart. Explain how to apply reverse psychology within the context of the story, OP shared. |

oldienavie: The irony of the issue is that, it is the women that have suffered most in this dispensation of monogamy. Go to churches, you see ladies in their 40s unmarried, and without a hope of where a husband will come from. Single mothers littering everywhere, if polygamy was not frowned at, these women will be settled and have some direction.
Some people like to delude themselves by saying marriage is not everything, very misleading thing to say. Even abroad, oyinbos take marriage very seriously talkless of Africa, if marriage was not important, why do women keep singing the carry me dey go song.
The summary of it is, westernization has made the life of an average woman worse , but we are not ready yet for this discussion. With almost 7 out of every 10 Nigerians living in abject poverty, 99.5% of bank accounts in Nigeria has N500k and below as balance, where is the financial capacity to cater for those wives and the children by the man? If Nigeria is a thriving economy where the basics are guaranteed, monogamy, polygamy... marriage in general would less be of a focus. Once more marriage is not everything and not everyone will get married as some do find their purpose outside it. |

LocalStandard1: At least we agree polygamy isn't the problem right? A man having "side chicks" outside is a sin that should be rejected. But when he is willing and capable of having a second wife it's non of our business. It has never been my business what a man wants to do with his money and his g.e.n.i.t.a.l.i.a but the business of his wife if she chooses not to be numbered. |
Family › Re: What Is Really wrong with Polygamy And What Yul Edochie Did by Mindlog: 4:31pm On Dec 26, 2022 |
Polygamy is a choice which you shouldn't coerce another into.
There are women who were raised to have no issues ending up married into a polygamous setting based on religion or financial gain. Be bold enough to be upfront with a woman that you intend having other wives after her, if she is okay with your preference she would not have issues with it
Let us not get it twisted that men who are married to more than one wife, do not still have side chicks despite having wives at home.
The baseline is, a man who is promiscuous whether he is married to one wife or to 4 wives will still be having sex with females he is not married to. |
